With Kong Yong as the guide,
they quickly bypassed dangerous terrain, accelerating their journey.
About ten minutes later,
the army halted in the woods on the west side of the village.
"My lord, that is the village I told you about. The ancient castle behind it is the residence of the Blood Clan's Burnes, it's guarded by the Dhampirs," Kong Yong explained.
Ahead was a small village.
And beyond the village, a castle's silhouette could be seen through the fog.
If the Blood Hunter still retained memories from the past, he would find this castle identical to his own Shadowwind Castle in its architectural style.
The situation in the village was dire.
Someone had leaked information to the Dhampirs. Now all villagers had been gathered at the central area of the village.
On the ground, two bodies lay.
One of the corpses was the only surviving militiaman who had followed Kong Yong when he abandoned his territory.
